Chris Rock, Rosie Perez join Gov. Cuomo to promote masks, testing

Gov. Andrew Cuomo recruited a pair of Brooklyn superstars Thursday to promote coronavirus testing, social distancing and the use of common-sense precautions, including wearing a mask: Rosie Perez and Chris Rock.

Perez and Rock — both masked and gloved as they took the podium, taking them off to speak — joined Cuomo at his press briefing at the Madison Square Boys and Girls Club in hard-hit Flatbush, to speak directly to their fellow New Yorkers.

“Spreading love the Brooklyn way means respecting your neighbors, respecting your communities, and the way you can do that is by getting tested, wearing a mask,” said Perez, the Brooklyn-born star of quintessential borough flick “Do The Right Thing.”

“Get tested, wear a mask,” stressed Perez. “Brooklyn, stand up, New York, stand up!”

Added Brooklyn-raised funnyman Rock, “If you love your grandmother, you love your elderly mother, elderly anybody, you should get tested.”

The comedian, who rose to fame on “Saturday Night Live,” admitted missing the stage amid the lockdown, and cracked that he barely passed his own COVID-19 test taken before the briefing.

“I just got tested to come out here,” he said with a playful grin. “I got a 65.”

The pair will partner with the state in a series of new ads promoting the efforts, Cuomo said.
